Mrs. B. G.. McCloud* arranged thc flowvers for a living room which con.- sisted. of calla liles in a white spode ur.The breakfast table for six per- sons was arranged by Mrs. Frank liarrett.,. This was done ini blue and vellow on a background' of. b.lack.. The garden gateway was designeëd b)y Mrs. Frank' Barrett and Mrs. S. D.,elood and was executed.by Mrs. Barrett, Mrs. Mark Cresap, and Mrs. F.W. Williamson. Through-an ever- green hedge swung a. White, well- designed. gate. On .onie side of, this was a white Ibench and on theother a mnass planting. of .eàpecially finet evergreen tÉees and a border of white tulips, and. yellow daffo41ls. White flagstones led f romn the imaginar%. roadway to t he gate. The Kenilworth Garden club was also featured by a booth devoted tto, the interests of wild flower conserva- tion. This was flot a çompetitive boot'l, but was devoted solely to the service, of conservation. Mrs., Hugh Foreâsm- mnan and Mrs. Edwin Hedrick planned and managed the booth. A balop- ican machine waî used to display seventy-one Wild Klwer plates done i.' color and was placéd most ad- vantageously near the entrance to tfie shlow and facing the stairway whiclî took care of the thousands of people going up to. the second floor exhibits and comiing down. Crowds four and five deep were almost,. constantly. watching the pictures, inquirieg about. the chart of wild flow*ers, askinie about the flowers whirh could be picked and Most willingly, taking t he literature which was given them, about Wild Flower Conservation. It was an opportune time to draw attention tii this hase of the work w'hich'Gardeni Club of America, together with the Wild Flower Preservation Society are emphasizing so strongly. With spring at'our very. doors, it was a good time to .suggest to motorists in their tour of the country to protect and niot de- stroy our natitral beauty. 28.
